Little Red Ladybird

Lyrics

Look down low on the leafy green ground, A tiny red friend is the best that I've found. Small and round with a shell so bright, Six little legs moving just out of sight.

Oh, little ladybird, red and so small, With tiny black spots, the loveliest of all. Walking on a leaf, in the garden so bright, What a wonderful, magical, ladybug sight! (What a wonderful, magical, ladybug sight!)

She's crawling along on a big green leaf, Taking her time, her stay is so brief. One little spot and two little spots, Count them all up, we like them a lot.

Oh, little ladybird, red and so small, With tiny black spots, the loveliest of all. Walking on a leaf, in the garden so bright, What a wonderful, magical, ladybug sight! (What a wonderful, magical, ladybug sight!)

Now her tiny red wings are stretching out wide, Leaving the garden where she used to hide. Flap, flap, flap, and away she will go!

Oh, little ladybird, red and so small! With tiny black spots, the loveliest of all! Flying in the sun, such a beautiful sight! Waving goodbye to our ladybug friend in the light! Waving goodbye to our ladybug friend in the light!

Fly away, ladybird, fly away high, In the bright blue garden and the sunny, sunny sky. Bye-bye! mosic: 4.5 bpm: 110.0 duration_secs: 152.8 good_crop: 1.0
